delusional thoughts
last week saw more factual reports in our local dailies. topping the list was how malaysia has been placed in the same league as many developed nations for the first time. undp categorised malaysia as a high human development country.
our beaming prime minister said the standing reflects our strong and long-standing dedication to developing our healthcare services, provision of amenities and infrastructure as well as our enduring commitment to education, training and human capital development.
healthcare - we have tuberculosis now, thanks to the poor screening of foreign worker. malaria, dengue etc are rearing their ugly heads again, after the names were foreign to us for some time. there was a time when we could drink water straight from the tap. try it now.
provision of amenities and infrastructure - its been two years since i contacted my local town council to repair the playgrounds in my housing area. still waiting.
enduring commitment to education - we actually have to endure with teachers who are committed to their tuition classes, leaving hardly any time for lessons in schools.
training and human capaital development - sure ... we have more and more kursus and seminars taking place. not sure about the development though, unless you factor in the waistlines of out typical government servants.
but foreigners dont lie, unless they condemn us. praises are usually accepted with open arms.
esp if the foreigners also praise the quality of uitm graduates. at the university's 50th anniversary dinner recently, representatives from "prestigious" universities in canada, germany and japan sang praises of our uitm graduates. i hope they sang in malay, because thats thats about the only language these graduates understand.
Pack up my suitcase, give me my hat,
no use to ask me, baby, 'cause I'll never be back.
i can't be good no more, once like I did before.
i can't be good, baby,
honey, because the world's gone wrong.
